Marco Sgarbi tells a new history of epistemology from the
Renaissance to Newton through the impact of Aristotelian scientific
doctrines on key figures including Galileo Galilei, Thomas Hobbes,
Rene Descartes, John Locke, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz and Isaac
Newton. This history illuminates the debates philosophers had on
deduction, meditation, regressus, syllogism, experiment and
observation, the certainty of mathematics and the foundations of
scientific knowledge. Sgarbi focuses on the Aristotelian education
key philosophers received, providing a concrete historical
framework through which to read epistemological re-definitions,
developments and transformations over three centuries. The Age of
Epistemology further highlights how Aristotelianism itself changed
over time by absorbing doctrines from other philosophical
traditions and generating a variety of interpretations in the
process.
